Hello out there!
I had a good start in the 1st quarter of last year...I decided to try atkins and it was working. I remember giving in to a carb crave sometime around 4th of July and it all went down hill.
Luckily I have only gained back about 7-8 lbs of the 18 lbs I lost. I am ready to start on my lean body goal AGAIN!
I have read that after being on a high meat diet for a while...the body will start converting all that excess meat protien into glucose. I am wonder if this is true? It seems to make sense because I felt wonderful the 1st month or so on atkins, then all of a sudden I started getting super mean sugar craves again. Thinking that my body was maybe converting the protien into glucose, which started the crave thing again. Any thoughts on this????
I am going to start again, but this time I am thinking I will eat less slabs of beef, pork and chicken...get most of the fat from extra virgin coconut oil, butter, cream, olive oil, salmon, avocados, bacon maybe a few mac nuts & walnuts, some eggs... Isn't fat really the star for changing the body from a sugar burning machine to a fat burning one??
Anyone have success with a little less meat??
Thanks!
